I feel most of the complaining from str users has been from people who spent a lot of gold and time getting their BiS gear, and this change has practically made them start over again. This has made a lot of players thinking of taking a break or quitting for good, and this is not without reason.
Therefore, this brings up the question again, why is it so expensive getting BiS gear? Why is smart crafting still not implemented? Why can you craft a piece of gear, it hit legendary, and the 3rd perk be completely useless?
I just want to make it clear, I 100% support the idea of constantly changing the meta and I absolutely love this patch (since I was a mage but had to be bruiser to get a slot in wars). However, pvp sets should not cost millions of gold. Hopefully when mounts come, the devs can use that content to make people want to grind and collect them for the dopamine factor instead of making BiS gear sets the grind.
